Another powerful day in Thailand!

Yesterday, our team distributed 49 wheelchairs in a rural region about six hours outside of Bangkok. While the days are long and the cases are complex, the impact continues to grow with every person served.

One of the most moving moments of the day was meeting Walinda, a nine-year-old with complex needs who received one of our new Hope Haven Tilt and Space Kidchairs. Her story, and the care taken to fit her properly, reminded us why innovation and compassion must go hand in hand.

Thank you to everyone who continues to pray, give, and believe in our mission.

A huge shoutout to everyone who joined us in Okoboji this past weekend for another epic year at the Winter Games!

Hope Haven was proud to take part in the Chili Cook-Off, and our Spencer My Day groups also braved the frigid cold for a trip to Arnoldโ€™s Park to see the incredible Okoboji kites at the 2026 Winter Games Festival.

Our Thailand team is off to a strong start. After a long travel day and a 13-hour time change, they jumped right in, spending their first day getting settled and then beginning what they came to do.

At Chai Nat Special Education School, the team distributed 30 Hope Haven KidChairs to students who are now able to sit, move, and learn with greater comfort and independence. The smiles and excitement were a powerful reminder of why this work matters.

On the second day, the team placed 24 more KidChairs. While the pace has been slower, these are some of the most complex cases, requiring extra care, precision, and time to ensure each child receives the right fit and support.

We are so grateful to be serving alongside this community and look forward to continuing these life-changing distributions in the days ahead.

That's a wrap on our Costa Rica distribution!

In Costa Rica, our team placed a total of 108 wheelchairs, 10 walkers, and 12 canes into the hands of children and adults who had been waiting for the freedom to move again. After weeks of uncertainty about whether the chairs would even arrive, seeing every one make it safely felt like nothing short of Godโ€™s provision.

This trip also marked a major milestone for Hope Haven. One of the first official Hope Haven Tilt and Space KidChairs was placed into the hands of a child who needs it. After three years of development and design, this chair, created specifically for children with complex needs like cerebral palsy, made its way from a garage in Iowa to a little girl named Carla in Costa Rica. With a simple adjustment, the chair allows caregivers to reposition her for comfort, blood flow, and protection from pressure sores, bringing a whole new level of care and dignity.

We also ask for your prayers as our team makes their way back home today and tomorrow. Thank you for being part of this mission and for lifting our team in prayer as they travel!

This , meet Mateo!

Mateo is five years old. When he was born, doctors didnโ€™t expect him to survive. His bones were so fragile they could barely be seen on an X-ray, and since then, he has endured more fractures and surgeries than any child should ever have to face.

And yet, Mateo attends regular school, just like any other five-year-old. His parents say he's brilliant, and already reading, writing, and superb in math!

Because his bones are so fragile, movement has always been dangerous for Mateo. This is his very first wheelchair and now, Mateo can safely go to school, the hospital, and out to enjoy life with his family.

Mateoโ€™s story is just one of many encountered on our recent trip to Costa Rica and reminds us of the strength and resilience of all of our wheelchair recipients, no matter their circumstances or age. ๐Ÿ’™

On January 20, Brookings Rotary Club members heard a firsthand account of Rotaryโ€™s global impact from Scott Parsley, who shared highlights from an international wheelchair distribution mission to Eastern Europe conducted in October.

Parsley was part of a team of Rotarians from across Rotary District 5610, including members from Sioux Falls, Rapid City, Custer, Madison, and Spearfish. Working alongside Hope Haven International, the group traveled to Romania and Ukraine to distribute and customize wheelchairs for children and adults with physical disabilities.

โ€œHope Haven has been doing this work in Romania since 1991, and their program has now expanded to more than 70 countries worldwide,โ€ Parsley said. โ€œWhat makes this mission special is how personal it is. You arenโ€™t just delivering equipment, youโ€™re working directly with families and individuals, fitting each wheelchair to their specific needs.โ€

During the trip, the team distributed dozens of wheelchairs in community centers, residential facilities, and private homes. Many recipients had never owned a wheelchair before, while others arrived using equipment that was unsafe or far too small. A licensed physical therapist traveled with the group to ensure each chair was carefully adjusted for comfort, mobility, and long-term use.

โ€œEvery wheelchair had to be customized,โ€ Parsley explained. โ€œSometimes that meant taking the chair apart and rebuilding it so it wouldnโ€™t cause pain or pressure. Watching someone roll away in a chair that finally fit them was incredibly moving.โ€

In Romania, the team also visited a newly completed wheelchair storage, repair, and distribution center built in partnership with a local Rotary club. The facility will serve as a permanent hub for fitting and repairing wheelchairs in the region.

The group later traveled through Moldova into Ukraine, where they conducted another distribution amid ongoing war conditions. While air-raid sirens sounded during their visit, Parsley said the resilience and hospitality of Ukrainian Rotarians left a lasting impression.

โ€œThese are some of the proudest people Iโ€™ve ever met,โ€ he said. โ€œThey love their country deeply, and even in the middle of war, they welcomed us with gratitude and generosity.โ€

Brookings Rotary Club members were encouraged to consider participating in future international service projects and supporting Rotaryโ€™s global humanitarian efforts.

Thank you, Scott, for sharing your experience with us! โ˜ธ
